We successfully set the CallerID number by creating different contexts for our various offices and using a Set(CALLERID(num)=xxxxx) call. But we could not set the name so I asked our new carrier (Vitelity - with whom we have been quite pleased thus far). This is their response to us:
We can have the name set for this number, however there is a one time passthrough charge of $xx per number for the update. Outbound caller ID is updated into a national database called LIDB (line information database), it is the final terminating provider that is responsible for querying this database and delivering it to their customers. > -- John A.
